Reconciliation showdown ahead on health care
Monday, 03.01.2010, 10:41am

without Republican support.
On the political talk shows Sunday,
Democratic and GOP leaders fought over budget reconciliation, the
parliamentary procedure that could allow a vote in the Senate and
circumvent a GOP filibuster.

Saturday, 02.27.2010, 12:49pm
Ryan Bingham is not Bad Blake. Blake, the protagonist of
"Crazy Heart" (portrayed in an Oscar-nominated performance by Jeff
Bridges) spends much of the film as a study in self-destruction.
He's
alcoholic and overweight, with several ex-wives and a son who won't
speak to him. His only saving grace is the music he performs at the
only venues that will book him: dive bars and bowling alleys.

Terrible Tommy spends 27 years in solitary confinement
Thursday, 02.25.2010, 08:31am
Tommy Silverstein has been held in solitary confinement for the past
27 years, longer than anyone else in the federal prison system, his
lawyers say.
He is locked up at the high-security prison in
Florence, Colorado, known as Supermax. The lights are always on. Guards
who slip him food through a slot in his cell door usually ignore him. A
few times a week, he is permitted to exercise in the recreation room --
alone. Visits with his family and his lawyers are conducted through
Plexiglas.

Tuesday, 02.23.2010, 10:34am
Early each morning, millions of farmers around the world rise to
toil in their fields. By night, gangs of mobsters scheme and legions of
poker players shuffle up and deal.
Sure, none of it's real. But
the overwhelming popularity of so-called social gaming -- simple games
that let people play with their friends on networking sites such as
Facebook -- is changing the face of video games, experts say.

Girl's arrest for doodling raises concerns about zero tolerance
Thursday, 02.18.2010, 08:03am
There was no profanity, no hate. Just the words, "I love my friends
Abby and Faith. Lex was here 2/1/10 :)" scrawled on the classroom desk
with a green marker.
Alexa Gonzalez, an outgoing 12-year-old who
likes to dance and draw, expected a lecture or maybe detention for her
doodles earlier this month. Instead, the principal of the Junior High
School in Forest Hills, New York, called police, and the seventh-grader
was taken across the street to the police precinct.

KRB Novelties has been in business for almost 10 years and they have many products they sell from their website OneShopZone.com
"I recently purchase some Lodge Logic Cast Iron Skillets and I recently read an article while searching for information about cast iron skillets which said "anyone who has cooked with Iron Skillets knows at least once how it feels when you grab the handle of your HOT Skillet. OUCH!."
These Leather Mitts fit Lodge Logic 10" and 12" handles. I am not sure if these Mitts will fit other handles such as Griswold, Wagner, Bayou or Cabela's Outfitter Series since I do not own anything except Lodge Cast Iron Skillets.
STOP the BURN! Get your Cast Iron Skillet Handle Mitt.
